Jason McCormick's research interests are in the general area of earthquake engineering, extreme load mitigation, and structural response reduction through innovative systems. Recent research in Japan focused on large-scale experimental studies on various aspects of the performance of steel structures under seismic loadings. These research efforts provide a means of incorporating multi-disciplinary efforts into the mitigation of damage to infrastructural systems during extreme events.
